Comedian Ben Roy's Edgy True Stories

Indie stand-up Ben Roy, dubbed "a skinny, punk rock Sam Kinison" by The Onion A.V. Club, brings his intense, high-energy comedy to the stage at Laugh Boston. The heavily tattooed comic has been making waves with hard-hitting stories about his own life, which includes panic attacks, a serious drinking problem and a stint as the frontman for hardcore band Thousand Year Suffering. As a member of comedy trio The Grawlix, Roy created and starred in the Amazon pilot Those Who Can't. He's also performed at Montreal's famous Just For Laughs comedy festival, and LaughSpin called his album I Got Demons one of the best comedy discs of 2012. Brian Glowacki and Lamont Price are also scheduled to perform.
